Old World Christmas Blown Glass Star-spangled Banner Ornament

The United States flag is a symbol of freedom, equality, and justice. Its red stripes denote sacrifice and courage, the white stands for purity of purpose, and the stars on the blue field represent the unity of the states. The Star-Spangled Banner was written by Francis Scott Key in and is the national anthem. Flying the flag demonstrates true patriotism and love of country.

Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800’s. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds made exclusively for Old World Christmas, before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.
